Category:American heroes

Hi,

I just thought you might like to know that the category above, which you created, has been nominated for deletion. Feel free to join in on the discussion at Categories for Deletion (accessible through a link on the category page). Thanks.

Please do not remove

Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion pages, as you did with Disappearance and murder of Jessie Davis. The notices and comments are needed to establish community consensus about the status of an article, and removing them is considered vandalism. If you oppose the deletion of an article, you may comment at the respective page instead. Thank you. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 14:10, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Naming footnotes

Hi. I wanted to clarify something about footnote names and Disappearance and murder of Jessie Davis. I used a <ref name="name"/>, and you moved the reference to the first occurence of the footnote. You're free to do that if you'd like, but it isn't necessary. Wikipedia:Footnotes#Citing a footnote more than once says that "Only the first occurrence of text in a named ref will be used, although that occurrence may be located anywhere in the article." In other words, <ref name="name"/> can appear earlier in the article than <ref name="name">Author, Article</ref> without any problem. I just wanted to let you know, so it can save you some time and effort. Anyway, thanks for your great work on the article. — Malik Shabazz (Talk | contribs) 19:25, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Commercial use of Image:Pleistocene Wisconsin.gif

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Pleistocene Wisconsin.gif, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Pleistocene Wisconsin.gif has a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission, which was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19 or is not used in any articles (CSD I3). While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, this is in fact not the case[1][2]. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because content on Wikipedia needs to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial. See our non-free content guidelines for more more information.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{GFDL-self}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. This bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Image:Pleistocene Wisconsin.gif itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. If you have any questions about what to do next or why your image was nominated for speedy deletion please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thanks. --Android Mouse Bot 2 04:57, 13 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Algific talus slopes

Hi Ace Telephone. You are off to such a great start on the article Algific talus slopes that it may qualify to appear on Wikipedia's Main Page under the Did you know... section. The Main Page gets about 4,000,000 hits per day and appearing on the Main Page may help bring publicity and assistance to the article. However, there is a five day from article creation window for Did you know... nominations. Before five days pass from the date the article was created and if you haven't already done so, please consider nominating the article to appear on the Main Page by posting a nomination at Did you know suggestions. If you do nominate the article for DYK, please cross out the article name on the "Good" articles proposed by bot list. Also, don't forget to keep checking back at Did you know suggestions for comments regarding your nomination. Again, great job on the article. -- Jreferee ^(Talk) 14:08, 27 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

DYK

On 27 July, 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Algific talus slopes, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

--W.marsh 16:40, 27 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it's a good thing. Someone saw Algific talus slopes as a new page and thought it was particularly good. DYK is just a place for promising new articles to get a bit wider exposure by being linked to from the main page for a few hours, your article met the standards. You can nominate future new articles yourself at T:TDYK if you want. And good luck with getting Driftless Area featured, it seems like a fascinating topic. --W.marsh 17:09, 27 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Peer review

You have to do a few things to link the peer review page with its indexes before it will get noticed. They have instructions at Wikipedia:Peer_review#Nomination procedure. The also have a certain style for the section header. I'll do it for you.--SallyForth123

Santiago Martinez Delgado

Thank you ACE, I had made some changes, as for the Frank Lloyd Wright issue / in the book about this artist by Joaquin Pineros Corpas- used as reference -- it mention that it was at taliesin where Martinez made his move to the Art Deco Style. --- As for the double barreled last name, is because there are other 3 Santiago Martinez paiters. --- Great help, and if you can look in to the grammar, tone and cohesion.

SallyForth123

The problem is that she has not shown those qualities over at Hurricane Dean, Hurricane Katrina, and various related articles and templates. She has edit warred and used IPs to evade the 3RR block, and has been blocked for a week as a result. --Core desat 05:04, 22 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Waukon

What's up with your reversion? By what you did, you deleted the county template and several interwiki links, aside from anything else — and I don't see how anything you did improved the article. Please don't think I'm angry; if I so sound, I'm sorry. I'm just confused. Nyttend 03:53, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!
While we appreciate that you enjoy using Wikipedia, please note that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a social network. Wikipedia is not a place to socialize or do things that are not directly related to improving the encyclopedia, as you did at Talk:Barack Obama. Off-topic material may be deleted at any time. This message is not meant to discourage you from editing Wikipedia but rather to remind you that the ultimate goal of this website is to build an encyclopedia. Thank you.

Wisconsinian glaciation --> Last glacial period

Dear Ace, please watch your language and calm down. You won't start any reasonable discussion whith a phrasing like the one on the Last glacial period talk page. I'd recommend renaming this topic on the talk page fast (please see the talk page guidelines) to start a discussion about the move (which was not discussed, but should be).--Jo (talk) 11:10, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Or, indeed, the words on Jo's talk page. Please see WP:CIVIL and/or WP:NPA. Expect to be blocked if you do this again William M. Connolley (talk) 21:30, 29 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Someone needs to explain on the article Talk page just what happened. There are many pronouns being used with no explanation of what is meant by 'this' or 'those'. -- SEWilco (talk) 16:39, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding this opera section - it is unnotable trivia, and doesn't belong in the article. Tvoz |talk 07:41, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Parkersburg Tornado

Ace, I have re-read the reference to the deaths in Parkersburg and New Hartford. It is clear that the death toll is at 6 in Parkersburg and 2 in New Hartford. If I am wrong about this, please explain what I am missing. Justus R (talk) 19:44, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
